Ambient Temperature Factor
The cooling system has the ability to cool a wine cellar efficiently to 55°F as long as the ambient temperature of the
area that it is exhausting to does not exceed 110°F. Therefore, you want to exhaust the condensing unit in a space which will not
exceed 110°F. Otherwise the system will not have the capacity to keep the wine at a desirable 55°F.
Ventilation
The necessity of dissipating heat away from the condensing unit is critical to the unit’s performance and cannot be overstated. As
the system operates and cools, a greater amount of heat is generated on the condensing side of the system. Adequate ventilation
is required in order to dissipate heat away from the condensing unit. If ventilation is inadequate, the exhaust will heat up the area
or room and adversely affect the system’s ability to cool. In some cases, it may be advisable to install a vent fan to dissipate heat
within the exhaust area on the condensing side of the system. However, you must have a fresh air inlet as well.
Note: If you are unsure about having adequate ventilation in your install location, please

WARNING! Allowing your system to operate in high ambient temperatures for
extended periods of time will greatly decrease the life of your system and void
your warranty. The cooler the temperature of the air entering the condenser coil,
the more cooling capacity the system has. The less heat gain through the common
wall, the less the electricity consumption.
